Book Geopressured geothermal Test of the EDNA Delcambre No  1 Well  Tigre Lagoon Field  Vermilion Parish  Louisiana

This book was released on 1978 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The presence of large volumes of hot water (250-425 F) containing dissolved natural gas in the Gulf of Mexico coastal areas at depths of 5,000 to 25,000 feet (the geopressured zone) has been known for several years. Because natural gas and oil from conventional production methods were relatively inexpensive prior to 1973, and because foreign oil was readily available, no economic incentive existed for developing this resource. With the oil embargo and the resulting rapid escalation in prices of oil and gas since 1973, a new urgency exists for examining the economic potential of the geopressured-geothermal resource. The main objective of the research reported here was to determine the volume of gas dissolved in the geopressured water, as well as the qualitative and quantitative composition of the water and the dissolved gas. A further objective was to use an existing shut-in gas well so that drilling time and the attendant costs could be avoided.

This book was released on 1978 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The geology and hydrology of the Tigre Lagoon Gas Field and the structural and depositional basin in which it occurs, as described, define a hydrodynamic system which has been in operation for millions of years. Fluid entrapment and geopressuring of the deposits has resulted in steepened geothermal gradients, accelerated maturation and thermal degradation (cracking) of fluid hydrocarbons, thermal diagenesis of certain clay minerals with release of much bound and intracrystalline water as free pore water, and a systematic fluid migration history controlled by the sand-bed aquifers in the basin, and by upward leakage at growth faults wherever fluid pressures approached or exceeded rock pressures. Observed geotemperature, geopressure, water salinity, and natural gas occurrence in the study area conform with the conceptual model developed.

This book was released on 1978 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Edna Delcambre et al. No. 1 gas well, shut-in since June 1975, was made available for the project. Two geopressured sand-bed aquifers were tested: sand No. 3 at a depth of 12,900 feet and sand No. 1 at a depth of 12,600 feet. Each aquifer was subjected to flow tests which lasted approximately three weeks in each case. Water samples were obtained during flow testing of the two geopressured aquifers. The water contained 11.3 to 13.3% dissolved solids. Several radioactive species were measured. Radium-226 was found to be approximately 10 times more concentrated than the average amount observed in surface waters. No appreciable amount of heavy metals was detected. Recombination studies at bottom-hole conditions indicate the solubility of natural gas per barrel of water to be about 24 SCF. The methane content was 93 to 95%, and the gas had a heating value in the range of 1020 to 1070 Btu/cu.ft. During the flow tests, the gas/water ratio at the well-head was observed to be 45 to 88 SCF/Bbl water produced. (MHR).
